It turns out that they don't like falling to the floor with extreme prejudice... the only UK supplier I can find is Nova Darkroom, but fourteen quid for a little plastic bit?
I think I only paid a fiver the complete tank! Aye well, better bite the bullet I guess.

Neil,
Have you tried Araldite? Dennis.

Sadly, it's not a plastic that Araldite likes, nor any other of the array of glues I have around the place. The breaks are unfortunately in the springy bits.

I suggest you go onto the US LF groups, find a post by Bob Salomon (he works with HP Marketing) and send him a PM asking how much they would want to send a replacement. He is known to be very helpful.

Thanks, Joanna; I already found a few by him. B+H prices are about half the UK price, too, but by the time the postage is on... ah, I wouldn't want to presume. I'll get one from Nova; I need some chemistry anyway - I still haven't sorted out my CHS50 exposure/development yet.

And it arrived this morning - impressively quick.
